GALLBLADDER ISSUES NOT SHOWING ON ULTRASOUND
Posted , 5 users are following.
Hi I'm 32, and about 4 months ago I had a crazy vomiting attack from an antibiotic, for sinusitis. I was hospitalized, and the weeks following everything got worse. My liver and spleen we're swelling out of my rib cage, terrible gas and distention in my upper abdomen, it looked like and felt like an alien trying to get out. I have had a fever everyday,a headache everyday, diarrhea everyday,blood in my urine, extreme upper right quadrant pain that radiates to flank and shoulder blade, dizzy spells,shivering spells,chills,kidneys will spasm and twitch, pain now radiates into left side as well, still major distention, enlarged papillae on back of tongue, no sleep, the pain in my abdomen feels like I have been punched or the wind knocked out of me. Its worse when I eat, I have lost 25 pounds and counting because everything I eat hurts me. I have a history of "ibs" which I put in quotes because it's a generic label they gave me when they couldn't find a cause. I have gallbladder disease in my family as well. The everyday fever and blood in my urine is the scariest, they have done blood work numerous times, and ultrasound, found nothing. I have a ct scan scheduled in a day, but I'm thinking I need the hida test. Unfortunately my doctors do this "preventative care" crap where they won't remove anything without a test result supporting it. What about all my symptoms that are getting worse and more intense by the day?! The only solace I have found is in forums like this, where I realized I am not alone. I'm frustrated, in pain and my quality of life is going down the toilet. Any suggestions,comments,answers you received would be greatly appreciated.

Well my ct scan was "normal" on to the hida scan on Wednesday. Problem is, all these new things have started on my left side in my intestines,in fact I have a lump forming right where the pancreatic duct empties into the intestines...I have a feeling that my gallbladder has screwed up other areas of my insides,it's not just the right side anymore and I'm so fearful that I'm gonna be right where u are, this is only the beginning, but it helps having others to share in our misery. Hang in there and stay connected!
